Figuring the morning fog might lead to a good flight along the coast, Marshall Iliff found 5000+ landbirds passing over Biddeford Pool this morning. He only caught part of the flight; so many more were missed. Most birds were seen from the boat ramp area that lies on the Biddeford Pool side across from Hills Beach, but the flight extend south of there too. Most birds seemed to concentrate along the north shore of the point, however.
15 Mourning Warblers
double digit Canada and Wilson's Warblers
1000+ Redstarts and Magnolia Warblers (those are the easy ones to ID in flight and so get #s)
20+ Yellow-bellied Flycatchers among 100+ Empidonax flycatchers
Marshall will likely have an eBird list available later today or tonight that will give the numbers.
